In real space some solar systems have 2 suns sometimes more how come there are no systems in New Eden with more than one sun?

Singular stars in solar systems may actually be exceptional in our universe, not the norm.
But the stargate technology in EVE is supposed to require a binary system in order to work, so all the systems players can access in the game are meant to have two or more. The other stars are just not shown for whatever reason. |

Why do I have a feeling that if CCP implements binary pair systems to the game, we will have "why are there no systems with more than 2 suns or other types of stars?" threads every month for 10 years?
Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings? |

1. There are dual star systems in Wolmhole space
2. EVE is only 7500 stars, which, while a lot, is puny compared to the Universe. Im the EVE Cluster, there are no dual or triple star systems.

qft, this. CCP has never exactly tried to make their universe anatomically correct, and they won't.
If you are interested in 'realistic' space games, I suggest Orbiter (http://orbit.medphys.ucl.ac.uk/) or Kerbal Space Program if you want something a little simpler. (although neither of those support binary systems either, as they only model single star systems. however the gravity and newtonian physics and correction of scale is all there. |

If we going for asking CCP to give us more realness in space I want it so when I run into someone we blow up!!! Callision alert!!

Well there are planets in all the systems, you don't just build a stargate to every crap star. Can a companion star be close enough to the main star so you can still distinguish him from the rest of the stars if the system has a stable planetary system? |

To piggy back off this, if you want a Universe Simulater, download Space Engine. It proceduarly generates Billions of Galaxies, each with Billions of stars (Single, Binary and Tritary systems).
http://en.spaceengine.org/
All types of celestial objects are represented: galaxies, nebulae, stars and star clusters, planets and moons, comets and asteroids.
Known celestial objects are represented using data from the catalogs: galaxies (NGC/IC), stars (HIPPARCOS), star clusters, nebulae, planets (our Solar system data and known extrasolar planets).
Uncharted regions of space feature procedurally generated objects: galaxies, stars, star clusters, nebulae and planetary systems.
The observer is free to move around the universe. Transition between any celestial body and any scale occurs seamlessly.
The observer can move around in space using the WASD keys, like in First Person Shooters. Movement with inertia is made possible in Spacecraft mode or Aircraft mode.
"Select and fly" autopilot: just click on any object with the mouse and hit the 'G' key to automatically go directly to the object.
Automatic binding of the observer to the moving object and automatic selection of optimum flight speed.
Search for celestial objects by name. Search for stars in certain radius. Scalable map of the Universe and a planetary system browser. Saving locations and autopilot's journal.
Built-in Wiki system with descriptions of many known objects and ability to extend by user. Possibility of renaming and describing of any object, including procedural ones.
The orbital motion of planets and stars is calculated in real time, with the ability to accelerate, decelerate, or reverse the flow of time.
Showing of orbital paths of celestial objects, their rotation and motion vectors, labels and markers, celestial grid, current selection pointer and user velocity vector.
Volumetric 3D models of galaxies and nebulae with interstellar dust clouds.
3D landscapes of planets and stars: for many solar system bodies actual data from space probes is used, for uncharted and procedural planets the surface is generated procedurally on the GPU.
The exact model of the Earth's atmosphere (code by Eric Bruneton), adapted for the other planets.
Lighting effects: lens flares, solar eclipses, shadows of planetary rings. Celestial objects cast light and shadows onto each other.
Controllable space ships (alpha).
Localization of many languages with the ability to add new ones.
Ability to import users addons: models, catalogs, textures.
It's not a game but it is fun to land on various planets in a binary system and see sunsets,aurora and all kind of galactic phenomenon.
